Commercial Contracts and Alternative Dispute
Resolution
Date:
January 22-23, 2009
(Postponed from
November 27-28,
2008)
Place:
Taj President Mumbai, India
Every legal professional
knows that there is no blueprint that
can protect contracts and projects from
disputes. Corporate litigation cases are
reported virtually everyday in the news.
Frequently, they relate to disputes
arising from interpretation of
documents, breach of contracts and
infringements of rights. This conference
will help your organization reduce
exposure and avoid litigation by being
fully conversant with the knowledge,
skills and strategies in ensuring that
your contracts are well negotiated,
properly drafted and managed.
Key issues to be addressed
include:
-
Essentials of contract law, examining
details such as when you need a
contract, what types of contracts exist
and the effect of statutory law on your
contractual arrangements.
-
Crucial ingredients required for a good
contract, examining exclusion and
indemnity clauses, intellectual property
rights, termination, breach of contract,
variation and modification, risk control
-
Key
consideration when drafting
international contracts
-
Options for assessing damages and
remedies for breach
-
Drafting and negotiating contractual
dispute resolution clauses and examining
and managing disputes in cross border
contracts

The United
States Institute of Peace (USIP) is proud to
unveil its new conflict management education
and training program. A program is needed in
which professionals from government, the
military, NGOs, and IOs, as well as
pre-professionals in the academic world, can
come together and receive training on core
conflict management skills, as well as best
practices in conflict prevention,
peacemaking, and state-building. To address
this need, USIP is expanding its education
and training programs to prepare
practitioners to work effectively in
conflict zones. Drawing on USIP's 20 years
of leadership in the field of conflict
management, these courses will complement
existing academic programs in international
security and conflict
management. Participants from backgrounds as
diverse as education, the military,
international organizations, the non-profit
sector, and international development
agencies will have a unique opportunity to
enjoy a common learning experience. USIP's
conflict management program will respond to
both individual career needs and the
